# The Trustee Savings Banks (Amendment) Regulations 1980, Note: Explanatory note


These Regulations amend the Trustee Savings Banks Regulations 1972, as amended, and dispense with some of the regulations affecting the management, payment and transfer of accounts by trustee savings banks.
The remaining provisions (1972 Regulations 3(5) and (6)) which relate to the extent to which trusts affecting accounts may be acknowledged by a trustee savings bank are revoked together with the requirements relating to withdrawals by or for minors and on behalf of mentally disordered persons and bankrupts (1972 Regulations 4 to 7). The provisions in respect of transfers from one account to another with the same trustee savings bank (1972 Regulations 8 and 9) and in respect of the addition of names to an account (1972 Regulation 10(1)), are also deleted.
These Regulations revoke the provisions relating to the proof of death of a depositor or a nominee, the law applicable on the death of a depositor and to payment without a grant of representation (1972 Regulations 16, 17 and 18). The procedural requirements for the transfer of an account from one trustee savings bank to another (1972 Regulation 20) are also abolished following the repeal of section 16(1) and (2) of the Trustee Savings Banks Act 1969 by the Trustee Savings Banks Act 1976 (Commencement No. 7) Order 1979 (S.I. 1979/1475). Certain minor amendments are also made to Regulation 14 of the 1972 Regulations (Payment under nomination). These are in consequence of the deletion of Regulation 19 by the Trustee Savings Banks (Amendment) Regulations 1979.
